Dr Samuel James Macaulay

Research Interests

My pronouns are he/him


I am a postdoc in Michelle Jackson's Aquatic Ecology lab. My research focuses on the effects of anthropogenic stressors associated with land use change, chemical contamination and climate change in aquatic ecosystems. I am interested in understanding how multiple stressors interact to affect ecosystem diversity and functioning, with a particular focus on human impacts in streams and rivers. Currently, I am working on a collaborative NERC-funded project with the UK Centre for Ecology and Hydrology exploring the interactive effects of treated wastewater effluent and warming on stream microbial communities.
